draw2d
======
Package draw2d is a pure [go](http://golang.org) 2D vector graphics library with support for multiple output devices such as [images](http://golang.org/pkg/image) (draw2d), pdf documents (draw2dpdf) and opengl (draw2dopengl), which can also be used on the google app engine.
This library is inspired by [postscript](http://www.tailrecursive.org/postscript) and [HTML5 canvas](http://www.w3.org/TR/2dcontext/).
See the [documentation](http://godoc.org/github.com/llgcode/draw2d) for more details.
The package depends on [freetype-go](http://code.google.com/p/freetype-go) package for its rasterization algorithm.
